Get matched with top outdoor kitchen builders in Champion, PA

"They were fantastic to work with. The project was started on time, professionally done and cleaned up afterwards. My house is the talk of the neighborhood now it is beautiful."

"I debated writing this review for a while. I hired SL Contractors based on the reviews and meeting Willis. I wish the ending had a better story but feel I need to share my experience so others may be warned. I’ll start with the positive. Willis genuinely seems like a nice person and the floors came out beautiful. Now for the not so positive. Willis was consistently late. Every appointment he showed up late, this should have raised a red flag for me but I gave him the benefit of the doubt. My project was way behind schedule and over budget. He originally told me 1 ½ weeks. I had told him I needed to go out of town for business on 3 separate dates and we built those days into the scope of work from the start. I ended up cancelling 2 of the 3 trips to give him extra time. He still went past the agreed date by an additional week and half. He worked alone for the majority of the project and would show up on most days between 11-1 leaving around 5. Half way through the project he gave me a slip for additional work/materials. None of which we discussed prior or I had any idea was coming. I sent him an email saying I was concerned and needed to ensure no more surprises and we had to stay on budget. He said the additional materials was because I had selected a more expensive granite for the countertops. I was a bit confused as I had told him from the very start what granite I wanted and we met at the granite yard to select the slab (he was almost 2 hours late for the appointment). The granite was scheduled for a Friday when I was going to be out of town for the last trip which I absolutely could not cancel but I changed my flight and came home the night prior to accommodate. However, he ordered the wrong sink and had to reschedule the granite install which I found out during the trip so I changed my flight for nothing. He told me he scheduled the install for the following Friday. The Tuesday night prior to the Friday new install date I told him I had an early appointment Wednesday I could not miss and he needed to be here because additional hardwood was being delivered, he had estimated incorrect square footage and I had to order more (which he agreed to pay half for the additional materials). He said he would be here. As I was walking out the door for the appointment the granite installers were just about to knock on the door. No sign of Willis. They said the install was scheduled for Wednesday not Friday. I called Willis and he said he was on his way and would be there in 45 min. He showed up about 1 ½ hrs later and the installers had left. He did have them come back in the afternoon. However, when they arrived they showed me the invoice to show me the install date. The invoice was for about half what was in the proposal with the contract but the square footage was more. Willis had calculated the square footage incorrectly for the granite as well as the flooring. At the end of the project he had more additional charges. I pointed out the difference in granite price which with the additional he was trying to charge me was well over double. I understand a mark up so he can cover his costs and for his time organizing however over double is not fair. He tried to say he had to demo the old countertops but again I pointed out that was already a line item. He also tried to charge me for a faucet but I had went out and bought the faucets for the powder room and kitchen myself. We discussed and I thought we came up with a fair agreement where we split the additional costs and we both felt comfortable, I still feel his miscalculations should not be put on me but I didn’t want to be unreasonable. Again, he was way over the contracted date of completion and still over our agreed upon cost. He told me he would call for the dumpster pick up and it would be removed within 3 days. After 4 days I texted him letting him know it wasn’t picked up and that once I had a painter I would send him pictures of the before/after. He responded with “ok”. I sent another text the next day asking for the number of the company for the dumpster as it wasn’t picked up and got no response. I waited 2 days and then sent a text again, no response. I called him and got voicemail. I then got a call from someone saying Willis was not authorized to deduct the amount we had agreed upon and therefore they cancelled the dumpster pick up and I would need to take care of it myself, both cost and scheduling. She wouldn’t give me a number or even the name of the company. She said Willis had given me a discount already. However the discount did not come close to the additional charges for his miscalculations. She also mentioned he didn’t charge me for the additional labor. I explained we had a contracted end date so the additional time was not my fault and he miscalculated that too. There were some additional line items I did agree to pay because again, I wanted to be fair. For example, he added costs for putting the baseboards back on and rehanging closet doors which I thought should be included but let that go as it was not specified in the agreement so I felt that was on me, there were a few other little things I just said okay on. I looked up online the dumpster pickup and called them. I found out that he had over filled the dumpster bags and I would need to order another bag and remove the overflow myself. This was the final straw for me. I was not going to write a review at all and let it go but I feel others should be informed when making the decision to hire Willis. Again, his work seems great but I question a contractor that miscalculates measurements at every turn and tries to over charge for his mistakes. Also to not even tell me they were canceling the dumpster (which was a line item in our agreement) was just outright dishonest and unfair. Now I am concerned that if anything goes wrong with the flooring he won’t make it right. It is disappointing to end the project with doubt and mistrust."

"I would highly recommend FCLC for any of your excavation or paver patio needs. I used them to put in a beautiful new paver patio, paver sidewalk, paver firepit and built-in grill bar area! They did amazing quality work and the price was right. The back and side yard areas required excavation before laying the pavers. Very knowledgeable with their machines. Had no problems bringing in the machines and getting the work done. They were reliable, professional and the job was done right! I canâ t tell you how many compliments I get for how beautiful my patio looks. TJ and his crew will do beautiful work for you! You wonâ t be disappointed!"

"The owner of Wolfeâ  s Extreme Builders, Chad, made the entire process of addling a Trex composite deck an exceptional experience. From the planning phase, Chad was able to show us pictures and plans from previous composite decks he built. He was 100% committed from day one, sketching, measuring, and offering tips weâ  d never have thought of. He designed a rain system and fabricated it to the exact specs of the deck. The rain system, fit underneath and to the joists collects rainwater. It flows into a hidden gutter and downspout which is then diverted away from the house. Now instead of having one outdoor space, we have two, since the stamped cement pad under the deck wonâ  t get wet. Workers from this outfit showed up ready to work until the job was complete. You donâ  t find this kind of work ethic every day. I will use Wolfeâ  s Extreme Builders for all my building projects in the future because they have proven to be top notch!"

"The professional did a good job, he did exactly what we asked him to do. He did an excellent job, everyone who saw his work liked what they saw very much. The work he did for me to this day, it still looks as nice as when he completed the project. The work he did for me looks beautiful, I am very pleased with his work and the value of the money."
